Question

Copy Child Records from User Selected Parent

There used to be a way to create a Copy Master/Child button where you could let the user browse the parent records and choose the parent to copy the specific children from. Does anyone know if this is still possible? From what I remember it may have been that outside QB wizard that was then replaced with the App level one, but I'm hoping this is still possible without a crazy workaround.

thanks!

Np
the Copy Master Detail can be initialed either by API or by using the Wizard.  In either case the source and destination end up in the code.  So it's really just a matter of turning that code into a formula to insert the source Parent which has the correct children.

Typically you would make a relationship to allow the user to  select the source Parent which has the correct children, save and then push the button.

Hi Leanne!

I found the option to add the button in the App Management settings
